7-day vacation in the south of Germany, Switzerland and France. The border triangle with Freiburg as the warmest city in Germany is a good place for explorations into the area. And indeed, we were not disappointed weather-wise. Had it initially looked like we would have 50% of the time rain and overcast days, this was […]

Traffic sign madness…
Between 150€ and 250€ costs a normal traffic sign incl. post and mounting. Doesn’t sound sooo much, but if you push it to the extreme, then it adds up quickly. The shown here is by no means an isolated case and certainly someone comes along and babbles some reason, but does not change the fact […]

Cuxhaven, Döse & Duhnen

Black & White Cuxhaven
Three pictures from last night. The Kaiser Pharmacy I always wanted to photograph, this has finally worked out. Here and also at Ritzebüttel Castle there are lamps in use that make a reasonable white balance more or less impossible. A black/white conversion is advantageous there.

Cadenberge Manor
Even if the weather in recent days not necessarily invites for photography, we have made a short trip to the manor Cadenberge. Maybe something is possible after all. On the way back a short stop in Neuhaus (Oste).
It wasn’t meant to be…
Planned for a long, long time and then the weather or better to say the clouds put a spanner in the works on two consecutive days… The plan was to photograph the Altenbruch Lighthouse – Dicke Bertha – and the full moon or nearly full moon with a telephoto lens. At a long distance […]

Only when you look closely you will notice the screening from the digital print. The colors are much better than in the test version. As of now, the booklet can be purchased or ordered at Ringfoto Schattke.
